I never tire of finding nice font combos. Here are a few more that I’ve found recently.


Mouse Memoirs / Archivo Narrow

Add this to your website <head> area:

<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Mouse+Memoirs|Archivo+Narrow:400,400italic,700,
700italic' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

And use this in your CSS:

font-family: 'Mouse Memoirs', sans-serif;
font-family: 'Archivo Narrow', sans-serif;

Playfair Display / Open Sans

Generally speaking, I like to use different styles of fonts for headers than for regular paragraph text. In this case, Playfair Display and Open Sans are pretty traditional versions of serif and sans-serif fonts. They also come in many weights and styles – from very light to extra bold and italic versions. Play with weights. Maybe try using an italic of Playfair Display for sub-headings…

Add this to your website <head> area:

<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Playfair+Display:400,400italic,700,700italic,900,900italic|
Open+Sans:400,300,300italic,400italic,600,600italic,700,700italic,800,800italic' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

And use this in your CSS:

font-family: 'Playfair Display', serif;
font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif;

Courgette / Didact Gothic

font-family: 'Didact Gothic', sans-serif;

Fauna One / Open Sans

Open Sans is a very versatile font that can be used in many different combinations.

And use this in your CSS:

font-family: 'Fauna One', serif;
font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif;

Podkova / Source Sans Pro

These are actually rather similar to Fauna One & Open Sans, but with a slightly different feel. How would you describe the differences?

700italic,900,900italic' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

And use this in your CSS:

font-family: 'Podkova', serif;
font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;
